Your Team Shouldn't Wait for You
A Story About Leadership, Decisions, and the Power of Trust
It’s Monday, 8 AM. You take a sip of coffee, turn on your computer - and it hits you. 27 chat messages. Five urgent emails. Back-to-back meetings all day. Decisions are already piling up. And worse - your team is stuck, waiting for you.
Should we move forward with this?
"This is the new project structure. Thoughts?"
"We're behind. Need to reprioritize."
It's not the big strategic topics that are blocking your team: it's the small ones.
And the more they pile up, the worse it gets.
The Weight of Being the Bottleneck
Every leader wants an empowered team. But empowerment doesn't mean saying, "You can do it," or worse: "Figure it out."
Real empowerment means your team has the confidence -and the context- to act decisively.
How a Submarine Captain Solved the Same Problem
David Marquet, a nuclear submarine commander, once faced the same challenge: His crew relied on his orders for everything.
Every decision had to flow up to him. And that's why nothing got done.
So he flipped the model: He'd stop giving orders. Instead, he built a system where his team had everything to decide on their own.
They no longer asked, "What should we do?" They said, “Captain, I intend to…”
Suddenly, everything changed: Decisions sped up. Mistakes dropped. Execution soared. His team didn’t just get better at following orders - they became leaders!
The function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers.
